Artists’ Television Access is a San Francisco-based, artist-run, non-profit organization that cultivates and promotes culturally-aware, underground media and experimental art. We provide an accessible screening venue and gallery for the presentation of programmed and guest-curated screenings, exhibitions, performances, workshops and events. We believe in fostering a supportive community for the exhibition of innovative art and the exchange of non-conformist ideas.

Read It and Weep is a series that aims to take the rock show format and diversify its offerings, encouraging artists from the Bay’s vibrant music scene to present alternative performances. On October 10th the vehicle will be video and projection.

Some of the artists showing are possibly better known for their musical affiliations (Numbers, Gowns, 16 Bitch Pile Up, K.I.T., 21 Grand, Zeek Shek), but at ATA they will have the opportunity to represent another facet of their talents and interests.

Join us for an evening of short pieces including an 80s pop culture powerpoint, a multi-media performance about asteroids, a percussive surround sound video depicting a 17 year sandstorm, AND a chance to win prizes in punk rock charades!
